Some Cards Made for Secret Stamper

Hi there everyone, hope you are doing well....guess the virus is still going strong in some other places in our country....be glad when life can go back to normal, when ever that will be. Our Governor has allowed some places to be opened and still others are still closed. Such a shame. Some people have lost everything or are about to lose everything. The world has turned up-side down for many.

April 18th, I started my sourdough starter. 6 days later, I started making bread, pizza crust, doughnuts, waffles, cookies (yes, sourdough cookies) fried bread, muffins, corn bread, scones, cinnamon raisin bread, short bread, biscuits and more bread. (Not all in one day...lol over the course of 5 weeks) I finally put my starter to rest yesterday, just for awhile. 

Actually I have 4 cups of sourdough starter in the freezer. So when I want to start another month of baking, I will pull out one cup of frozen starter, defrost and add 1 cup of warm water and 1 cup of flour. Starting all over. Some of my favorites were the pizza crust, cookies, scones and short bread and of course bread.

I have gone shopping 3 times this month and possibly tomorrow. That will be 4 times this month. Saving some money and YES, I will wear my mask, but I will need to lift it up to get some oxygen in my lungs. We are running low on TOILET PAPER!!!! Least now there will be some on the shelves this time around.

So I made some cards, finally got myself downstairs to finish up the cards I needed to make for the secret stamper group. This butterfly card was easy, I die cut the butterfly. My secret stamper lady gave me the "On your Special day" background.

I sent the flower to my secret stamper....this is my rendition of the flower, done in yellow. Her rendition was in pretty pinks. If I receive the cards from Staci, I'll show you both cards together.
In this card, I sent the die cut of a Heart, being it was for February, it made a good Valentine Card.
Here's my vintage man by a bike....always a good one for Father's Day. Traci's card turned out cute too.
I will show you more cards next month, maybe by then I will have received the cards from Traci and Carrie (my secret stampers). You can compare the cards I made, to the cards Traci and Carri made. Always fun to see how each person comes up with one idea and the other, another idea using the same images.

I planted some seeds in my planter on Saturday. (last years planter). This year so far, Roma Beans, Cucumber seeds, Morning glory seeds, scallions and oregano seeds. Covered the bean seeds with wire fencing so the squirrels and chipmunks would stay OUT!!!

So I went outside today to see how things were growing...…..holes all over the place. The planter with scallions and oregano seeds  planted, the divider was knocked down and there were holes all over.....that upset me very much. How do you grow things when the critters destroy everything????? I would like to know!!!! 

Well, I asked "Cortina" what keeps chipmunks and squirrels away from the garden....."add SPICE to the garden"!!! Cayenne pepper!!! I found some in the cabinet and marched out to the planter and peppered it down. So much so, I started sneezing....that should keep those critters away!!!! We will see how that works. I still have a larger jar...just have to find it. Do you think my Roma Beans will be spicy???

Gonna close here now you all take care and keep looking up, better days are coming. Cheers ~ Louise

A Little Bit of This and That

Hi there everyone. Hope you are still enjoying this Valentine Month. Thought as long as we are still in the month, I could share our Valentine's Day with you.
These are the flowers I bought for me, from JP and Kylie.....a bunch of little carnations....sweet aren't they? JP gave me a book mark, made from a card I made for him and he recycled it from Christmas!!!!
These are the cards I made for JP. The red one with the hearts and butterfly is from me. I rather like that card and if I can remember, I'll make more like this for Hospice next year. The "Eye-Love-You" card is from Kylie. That was fun to make, a fun kids card.
This is the inside of the card, that's my drawing...hahahaha...fun!
Last but not least.....I still have my Christmas tree up.....yep!!! But it's a Valentine Tree. I like the lights.....maybe if I can find the lights, decorations, I will make a St. Patrick's tree. We'll see....not ready to take the tree down yet.

The Blackhawks are playing the Los Angeles Kings. Hawks are losing 3-0....oh honestly. Maybe I don't want to watch the slaughtering of the Hawks again. They just came out of a 8 game losing streak and won Saturday 8-1 against the Washington Senator's. The Hawks are not playing the way they played Saturday night......can't seem to figure out what the problem is. It can't be because the regular Goalie is out.....can it???

Tomorrow I have an appointment with the eye doctor. He is going to check to see if his laser job worked on my eye. Guess there was a hole in the retina. I haven't noticed any difference, so to me, everything is okay.

Wednesday, is my date at Betty's to make cards. I missed last month, because I was sick. I can't remember the last time I was that sick. Better now, guess it takes a while to get better after a bout with the flu.

JP has to make an appointment with our Doctor and fill out a form with him for his job. They want to know if he is capable of still working.....(sigh). He is capable, but they (his supervisor) is questioning it. They give him so much to accomplish in one night and then the building he cleans, they want extra work done. "I think they are wanting "Superman" to clean the building!!!!! Just my observation....but that doesn't count!!

Still working on my Atkins Diet. I hope tomorrow I break that plateau I have been on for a week or so. Gets a little frustrating at times. I am finding a few blogs that have great recipes for the low carb, protein diet. The other day I made a Keto mug bread for my hamburger.....gosh that was good!! I have the ingredients for Keto Pizza Skillet. With plans to make Keto Fathead Sugar Cookies, Fathead Pizza Dough...lots of ideas. The other day I made Keto chicken soup called "Sopa de lima" peppers, tomatoes, chicken....then I added some avocado and cilantro seasoning.

I am really enjoying this diet actually....the last time I tried this, last July, lost 10 lbs and have managed to keep it off. Now if I could do another 10-15 lbs and keep it off, that would be an accomplishment for me. I ask God every night to help me. I think He is helping. I know my mind has to change first. Cause if you gave me a big bag of chips.....I could finish it off....with no problem or a whole plate of fries. I LOVE CARBS but they are the killer!!!

Time to close. The score is still 3-0. I want to watch the rest of the game, I will up-date you. You have a great day tomorrow and keep looking up...better days are coming (I am sure of it.)
Cheers ~ Louise

Last Day of January.......

Hi there everyone......so yeah, it's the last day of January. Wow time flies, I always say that, don't I? I seem to be your broken record. Repeat, repeat, repeat!!!

I am happy to report that my eyes are looking much better as of today. No, no recent picture....maybe next post, if I think about it. There sure is a big difference and happy to say, I am glad I did this surgery. I was kind of hesitant at first and thought, do I really need this surgery, and almost wanted to cancel. But again, I am glad I did not. Here's hoping this is the last of surgery's for a LONG while for me at least.

So anyways....maybe after I fix my hair and put some make-up on....I will take a picture of the "new me!!"

For my last post of January, I thought posting some cards I made for Hospice would be good. I believe I said I would do this in my last post.

So below are some Valentine cards I made. The "heart" and "Love" are my new dies I bought from "Simon says Stamp." Here is their site, enjoy the journey. Very simple cards, the background is an embossed folder with hearts, then the die and Love are glued on the background and sequins added for a little glitz. A bow on the bottom card. I learned how to make a bow using my two fingers....wish I could show you.

The grey cards are a copy of a card I received last year (top left). The bottom and right are my rendition of that card I received. I just added the bows.
These two cards are a copy of a card I saw on the Internet. I kind of changed it up a bit putting my interpretation into it. Kind of like the way I cook....always changing the recipe before I even cook it. Or when the husband/father starts shaking the salt and pepper on the food without tasting it first.
Here are some St. Patrick Cards....I just used some stuff I had laying around in the St. Patrick box. Stickers, ribbon, the shamrock is actually a heart punch.....3 hearts = a shamrock....pretty neat huh?
Another design using the heart punch and shamrocks and Leprechaun. I did get some new dies from Stampin'up.....dragon flies....looking forward to putting some cards together with those dies. Next post.
So there you have it....the end of January and the beginning of February. What will transpire in February???? One thing I have to get done  this month is our taxes....so, I may not be blogging much in February cause I will be deep in organizing and putting together everything. Hopefully we will get the regular refund back that we usually do....that will help a lot.

We need to get JP some new glasses and pay a few bills.....so what else is new???? Well, you all take care and enjoy the new month. Keep looking up cause better days are here again!!!!
Cheers ~ Louise

Happy Valentine's Day

Hi there everyone.....Happy Valentine's Day to you!! Hope you all have a wonderful day and you feel the love of those around you this lovely day.  

We don't celebrate that much here. I already bought my flowers and really not sure what I will make for Valentine's dinner.  I have steak and fish in the freezer, so I may pull one or the other out tomorrow before we leave for church.
I always liked Valentine's Day....I like the card making and lots of hearts. This card I made last year...perhaps tonight I will make JP a card....plan and simple and add it to the end of this blog.

My printer broke down after 6 years of use....the printer head went kapoot...and after I invested in $50 worth of ink....honestly, not too happy about that!!! I did have an extra printer downstairs (new, never used) so I brought that one up here for this computer....maybe I will get another cheap printer for downstairs at a later date. Will hook it up so I don't have to run up and down the stairs to print off stuff that I need for card making. We shall see.

I picked up some Easter napkins to make cards with. I was going to take a picture of them, but will wait till a card is made with the napkins....which came first, the card or the napkin???

It's really cold outside, uge, don't care for this hard cold....but I guess there are only 36 more days left and SPRING will be here.....I can't wait!!!! I love spring, but that too never lasts long and then comes the summer......geez, no wonder time flies, we are always looking forward to the next season. Wouldn't it be nice if we just enjoyed the season at hand instead of rushing on to the next?????

Well, I think I will make this a short post...nothing much is going on that is exciting. I did make a Blue Apron meal the other night "Goat Cheese and Kale Quiche with Butter Lettuce & Chive Salad" I loved the butter lettuce so much I went out and bought another head....just for ME alone!!! I told JP I would not share with him!!! Man do I like that lettuce.....my new obsession with oil, garlic vinegar, salt, pepper and a little sweetener. YUM!!!! 

Have a great evening and a wonderful Valentine's Day!!! Keep looking up, better days are coming. Cheers ~ Louise

Etsy Sale, Juicy Lucy Burgers and Lots of Hearts

Hi there everyone. Hope you are having a good week. Our week is full of Doctor appointments...Uge. I had blood tests today. JP has his tomorrow and then on Friday he has two appointments at the Hospital. The Neurologist and the Urologist....hope things go well and the Doctors can figure out his problem.

So in the picture below is a Blue Apron meal from last week. "Juicy Lucy Burgers with Frizzled Onions and Romaine-Walnut Salad" Oh my, was this a delicious hamburger. Every bite was juicier then the next....I needed a few napkins for this one. It was well worth the wait to eat....we both are looking forward to the next time I make this, no other hamburger will ever be as good as this one.

What made this juicy, I think, was that the cheese was sealed within the burgers and then refrigerated for 10 minutes...actually I am not sure if that was the reason.....but it sure made a difference. The burger also had a sauce which was so good. Mayo and crushed garlic mixed together....so good. Then topped with frizzled onions and romaine lettuce. The frizzled onions were drenched in flour and fried till brown and crunchy. Definitely a 5 star burger.
So this past week I got an Etsy sale....that always makes my day. I do the Etsy tap dance for about 10 minutes then start thinking about, "what will I put in my Etsy store next." So as you can see, in this next picture are a bunch of hearts I punched out and will sell in my Etsy store. 60 hearts for $3.50 + shipping. These little hearts are always handy to have, good for cards, scrapbooking or just tape to windows and doors.
OR, make a few book marks like the picture below. I made 3 of these little book marks and added them to my Etsy store. 3 book marks for $2.55 + shipping. I don't know about you....but sometimes I just need a book mark instead of a piece of paper to mark my place. GOSH.....that almost sounds antique-ish. What with the Kindles and I-pads and phones and all. I have neither, so I am still reading from books.
I made this card last year, but never got it into my Etsy store....there will be 3 of these cards for $5.50 + shipping.
Here's another 3 cards for $5.50 + shipping. I did make a few new cards, but have not taken pictures of them yet. I am in the process of making a few more cards, so maybe I will add them to my Etsy store then show them in my next post.

I may not get downstairs tonight to make some cards. In between making cards I have been reorganizing my work station.....things sure do get messy. I tend to not put things back where I find them, then when I look for that item.....it's not there. Geez.....
 
Well, I guess it is time to close this post and get some dishes done. Tonight's menu is some soup from Blue Apron. "Chicken & Udon Noodle Soup with Napa Cabbage & Dried Lime." This was very good....a keeper for a quick soup. I should give you the recipe.
 
Well, you have a good evening and great day tomorrow. Keep looking up....better days are coming. Cheers ~ Louise

My Valentine Tree....

Hi there everyone. Hope you had a nice Saturday....it was lovely outside today....I should have taken a walk with Kylie, but I did not. Maybe tomorrow.
Today I am posting my Valentine's Tree. Lots of hearts, and look there's that red elf....he must have hid among the branches when I was taking the Christmas stuff down, I think he hoped I would miss him.....well, I really didn't only reason he stayed in the tree was cause he is RED and perfect for Valentine's Day.
I suspect the tree will come down after Valentines.....I don't dare leave it up for St. Patrick's Day. I love the lights....and will miss them.

Tomorrow I shall be picking 4 names. If you have commented on any of my blogs for past few weeks, you became eligible. Each comment was worth a chance to win and Valentine Card from me. I can hardly wait to pick the names. I will let you know if  you won by an email and if I need your address, I will let you know. I do have a few addresses......so we shall see.

Nothing too much happened today....just worked on Income tax and getting that all organized. Still have to go over the medical stuff and pull all of the 2014 bills out of the files.

Making this a short and sweet post, have a good rest of the day and keep looking up. Cheers ~ Louise

The Last Day of January......

Hi there everyone. Hope your Saturday is going well for you. This was a quiet day, nothing much going today. I am making some Mexican Meatball Soup in the crockpot. It should be ready around 8pm or so. I keep taste-testing, I am afraid by the time 8pm rolls around I will be full of meatballs and there won't be any for JP. Uh-oh!!!!!
Isn't this little poster so true???? When I look at my puppy dog I always think how sweet she is, and if she could talk, boy would she tell me a thing or two. Such unconditional love.....I believe....it's the same kind of love that God has for each and every one of us....when men fail all around us.....we still have God that loves us no matter what!!!!!....how great is that?????

Commercial Time.......So you have one more week to leave a comment on my blog, (the last one, this one or the next couple of blogs.) Even if you just say "Hi" that would be sufficient enough to be eligible for a Valentine Card from me. February 8th I will pick 4 names and those winners will receive a card for Valentine's Day. Enter as many times as you want leaving a comment each time. I will put your name in the hat....the more comments, the more chances to win.

Cannot believe this is the last day of January...my how the time flies. I had two sales for my cards (18 cards in all) in January, one on Etsy and the other from a friend....here's hoping February will be good to me too.

One thing I have to work on this month is the income tax....uge I hate that job, getting everything together for the accountant, cleaning out my filing cabinet of 2014 stuff,  answering the questions, so much work....but then I have to remember, maybe there will be a refund too....and that always comes in handy, helping to pay bills.

Still working on doing smoothies everyday, watching my weight and blood sugar numbers. Didn't do very good at losing any poundage in January....maybe February will be better.

Well, time to close, hope the rest of your day is good, keep warm and keep looking up.
Cheers ~ Louise

Some Cards I Plan on Making

Hi there everyone. Are you enjoying your Sunday evening??? It's Downton Abby night at 8pm, so wherever I am with this blog....I shall then go and watch it....I'm a fan. The blog can wait.

Valentine's Day Card Give Away. Don't forget to leave a comment at the end of this post...even if it is just to say "Hi...how are ya". For every comment you leave, your name will be added to the bowl of names. On February 8th I will pick 4 names. If I don't have your address, I'll email you for it if you are one of the winners. I'll then  send you the Valentine Card that is in my header. (Maybe not that one, but one like it.)

Thought I would post some cards I am planning on making. Note: these cards are not what I have made...but are cards that I have seen on Pinterest and copied to my files for future use. All these cards are made with the Stampin' Up Stamps called "Works of Art" I think this is the most versatile stamp set I have ever seen. I love something that has lots of uses, it tickles my creativity.
These two cards will be good for Memorial Day, 4th of July and Veteran's Day....will be fun to make.

Both of these cards, using the same set, two different ideas in making sail boats.
Most of you have seen this card...I made it for Christmas this year....Mr. Snowman was lots of fun to make.
Here is another card for Memorial Day, 4th of July and Veteran's Day. So many ideas, aren't there???
This was a fun card....Made this one as a Valentines Card and added them to my Hospice box...very fun to make.
Last but not least, the lovely butterfly, I shall try this one real soon. Maybe it will feel like Spring sooner.
Well there you have it....just a few cards on my agenda to make. You all have a great rest of the evening and keep looking up. Have a great week and I hope you get all that you planned to do...done. Cheers ~ Louise

Valentine Cards and a Card Give-away

Hi there everyone. Hope you are all doing well. Can you believe.....this is my 555th post since I started blogging in 2008....wow, how the time flies when we blog.

Since this is my 555th post, I really had no plans on doing a give away....BUT, on second thought, if you would like to receive a Valentine card from me.....
1) Just leave a comment for the next 4 weeks or 26 days on my blogs (1/14 thru 1/8) and I will put your name in the pot.
2) On Sunday, February 8th I will pick 1 name or 2 or 3
 (maybe even 4.)
3) The winners will be announced in time to receive a Valentine card February 14th.
4) Sounds like fun, I know it is not much, but it is always fun to send a card and receive one.
All these cards that I am posting here will be in my Etsy store, if you are interested in buying any one or ALL of them. The cards above are my "Tic-Tac-Toe" Valentine cards. Very fun to make. They will be selling for $10.00 + postage. Buy 4 cards and receive a 5th card for free. Each card will come with an envelope. The inside of the card is stamped with "Happy ♥ Day"
The above Valentine card is one of my newest cards. Actually made this last night. This may be the card that you will receive from me as the "give away" card. I will be selling this card on Etsy for $3.75 + postage.
Another set of cards, buy 4 cards for $10.00 and receive 1 card for free. Two of the cards are blank inside (little girl and the heart on far right). The two bears says, "My heart belongs to you forever". The blue card says, "Happy Valentines Day" and the pink card with hearts says, "Love".
Not sure yet how I will sell these cards, if they will be a set, or be separate....still thinking on this one. Two cards for $5+postage or Four cards for $10.00+postage.
These cards....I have had for a long time...thought I would sell them on Etsy for a set of cards, as you can see they are "Photo Cards" Cute baby on those cards....huh? I will probably sell the set of 3 cards for $12.00 + postage. Note: the pictures will not be included and the inside of the card is blank.

Well, it is time to go walk Kylie. I bought her a "Stop Pulling harness" cause she takes me on walks rather then I taking her. I tried it yesterday and it seemed to work. I get so worried when I walk Kylie, she pulls so much and I tug her back...I am always afraid I am hurting her. So, we will see how this harness works.

Well, you all have a good night and keep looking up.
Cheers ~ Louise

A Few Cards I Made 4 Hospice Meeting Today

Hi there everyone. Hope you had a wonderful week, busy, full and fun packed with much to do.
My week was full of much activity, mostly making cards for Hospice, voting, cooking, paying bills, shopping, computer stuff, house cleaning, winterizing the front and back yard....the normal things of life.....of which I am still trying to figure out what normal is, so whatever normal is? I guess this will be what my normal is. Does that make sense?

So in the above picture is my Thanksgiving card. Just a simple turkey, colored in with copic markers, layered on an orange back-ground which was run through the cuttlebug with a pumpkin folder. Then sprayed with a gold mist. I have about 8 more cards to make, those will be sent to a few friends and family.
This neat card is stamped with some of my new stampin' up stamps. This can be for a birthday, thinking of you or thanksgiving too.
Again these are all Stampin'up stamps. The three thanksgiving people is a stamp I must have gotten over 10 years ago....one of my older stamps and probably one of the first stamps I bought for thanksgiving.
This is one of my newer stamps from Stampin'up. I really enjoyed making this card. Stamped and embossed, then painted with pearl-x, it was fun trying to blend the colors together. This one is in pretty blues.
Same card as above, but this card is in reds with a different color card background.
This card is in the greys and whites. So there you have it. A few cards in my "portfolio". I might do a few more and put them on my Etsy store. As soon as I get my Thanksgiving cards made. Then, on to Christmas cards for Hospice and sending out to friends and family.

Well, time to close and make it a day. Have a great day and keep looking up. Cheers ~ Louise

Etsy Tap Dancing Today........

Hi there everyone. How is your day going on this wonderfully, beautiful day???? I really need to get outside for awhile, but have a few things to do inside first. One thing is to get these two sales ready for mailing on Monday. This will be my first time sending something breakable. Gosh I hope the tea cup and saucer gets to it's destination safely!!! I have plenty of packing stuff, so it should be okay.

My first sale this week were these hearts....100 of them....they can be used for card making or scrap booking or made as favors for weddings, showers or for Valentine Day. What's really neat about these hearts is that they have a sticky back, by peeling off the backing they can be stuck on paper, sticks, straws, to be used as cup/cake picks.....ideas for these hearts is endless.
The next day I got a sale for this lovely rose imprinted Duchess Bone china tea cup and saucer. Made a profit of $7.50, so that is exciting. I still have a few more tea cups and saucers to sell. But have to get pictures taken of them first. Been working on making some cards and probably will add them and a few more vintage things to my Etsy store this next week.

So much to do lately....it's hard to keep up with all the activity sometimes. I find it hard to imagine, how in the world I held down a full time job and still got things done around this house. But then I guess my house and yard were neglected, big time. Guess that is why I am constantly trying to play "catch up" Whew....this game is wearing me out!!!!

UP DATE on JP....he is okay, Doctor gave him some medication that seems to be working and his plumbing is finally working.....Thank God!!!!

You have a great week end and enjoy.....June 1st is tomorrow.....7 months left in 2014 and June 21st Summer begins and the days start getting shorter.......oh please, I wish time would slow down a bit!!!
CHEERS ~ Louise

Some Vintage Items 4 My Etsy Store

Hi everyone. Hope you are enjoying the wonderful 50-60 degree weather. I think the weather is agreeing with everyone, there seems to be a smile on most of the faces I see during the day...so that is a good sign that Spring is finally here.

I've been a bit busy here. Just got finished with an order of 500 punched out hearts. As soon as the order is picked up on Etsy, off goes the package to the Post Office tomorrow. It sounds like she is a wedding planner or something to that effect....we'll see. I think I was her first Etsy purchase ever....so hopefully she was happy with the service and will return for some more hearts.

I finally finished the application to hopefully get our roof fixed by "Rebuilding Together" They get funds from people and company's to help senior citizens stay in their homes, getting big projects done, like roofs, plumbing, weatherization, heating or whatever needs to be fixed. Someone is coming Tuesday to take a look at the roof and ceiling......gosh, I hope this time it can get fixed. Last time I tried getting help from this group, there were no funds. Another one of those "we'll see" situations.
Isn't this the most sweetest elephant, he's a planter, I found one on Etsy almost like him.....for $22 + postage. I don't know, I think I could get into collecting Elephants. I found an elephant creamer in blue...was going to sell him on Etsy....but I fell in love, he makes me smile every time I look at him......I will take a picture of him in a couple of days and post him so you can smile too.
Here's another view of this sweet elephant. JP brought in some inpatients in the fall....so that is what you are looking at...I am going to root them for planting outside when it gets warmer out.
I picked up this cup and saucer at the thrift store along with the elephants and a couple other cups and saucers. I will be putting this cup and saucer in my Etsy store in the next few days. It's Duchess Bone China made in England in the 70's. Searching other Etsy stores and seeing what prices are going for, for this particular tea cup and saucer, I might sell for $10 - $15....I'll probably check Ebay also. So I've got some more time to do more homework.
It's a very pretty little cup and saucer.....time to take some time to smell the roses with some "Earl Grey" tea and a crumpet with jelly. I think the English have a very wonderful tradition....a cup of tea at 4:00pm....yes, I should do that too.

Time to close here for awhile....talk to you later and keep looking up. The weekend is almost here. Cheers ~ Louise

My Goodness, I've Learned A Lot!!!!

Hi everyone....hope you are having a good evening. Made a pizza tonight for dinner, it had homemade vegie marinara sauce, pepperoni, cheese and spinach...pretty healthy I think and very yummy too. Hope the calorie content was not too, too high.

Well, as you can see I finally figured out how to download my pictures from the camera into the computer AND post them on Etsy and on this Blog. Whew, now the true test will be if I can do it again and again and not mess up. So here are four cards I made, hope you like them.
                                     
"Lord I'm Coming Home" in greys enhance this lovely lady with stars and lace. She is one of four vintage cards.  The card is blank on the inside as are the other three cards. This card is not yet in my Etsy store, but will be within this week. Now that I'm learning how maneuver around this new computer.
"Down From His Glory" A gold and yellow vintage lady with stars and lace embellishing this card. for some reason, I forgot to stamp a flower or something old on this card......but that is okay, still looks pretty.
"What A Friend We Have In Jesus" with the vintage lady in red with flowers, lace and a stamped chandelier on the music sheet. I listed this card on Etsy and it has been a fan-favorite with a lot of artists from other Etsy stores favoring it. These cards will be selling for $3.50 each + 1.50 for postage.
"Sin Can Never Enter There" and a vintage lady, lace and tulip stamped on the music sheet. Different about this technique was that I inked the tulip then sprayed with water and stamped, so it looks like a water colored flower. This card is on Etsy also and can be picked up for $3.50 + $1.50 postage.

So there you have it, four new cards, two cards already on Etsy and the other two due in a couple of days. I am thinking of adding some old cook books and a few vintage things I have laying around the house. We'll see as time goes on. I did have a sale a couple of days ago, so I need to start working on that....500 punched hearts with 250 punched and 250 more to go.

You all have a great day and keep looking up. Talk to you later with an update to "Learning something new on the computer everyday" Cheers ~ Louise
